sensible way you think we to war with russia and china. russia is selling everybody oil and all they care about is their own crony capitalism. china is our biggest creditor and have no interest in a war with us. we should not be spending money on these things. >> one of my refrains has been stop spending, stop spending, stop spending and there's a similarity between our current discussion and what we learned about the post office. what gripes me most about the post office, i understand they lost $16 billion last year but that's not the worst part, they have skipped two years of payments totaling over $11 billion for some of the retiree benefits. it is stop spending but maybe overpromising is this reason. i think that applies here as well m. your final thought, only a few seconds left. going to defeat the spenders and tax-spend borrow forces of the democratic party tactically the republicans do a pivot and get smart leading the effort to cut defense spending. it's the only way forward. >> thanks for being our guest. carl, all yours. >> rick
